Great Fun

This book is a lot of fun to read through -- you get a lot of history, with background on the culture of T & T, the origins of the T & T carnival, along with many calupso rhymes and the origins of many of the foods and recipes. I've always wanted a recipe for true Pina Coladas, and the recipe for Ginger Beer sounds more like a science experiment, but my son and I plan to try it out. Instant island vacation!
